Is Judge Sullivan going to keep General Flynn in limbo?

Any thoughts on how long Judge Sullivan is going to keep General Flynn in limbo.

Will it go to the full Appeals Court? or will he not make a decision until after the election?

I heard Sidney Powell talking about this. Generally, when ordered by a higher court to dismiss a case, the judge does it in 24-48 hours ALTHOUGH there is no set time deadline. Obviously, Judge Sullivan is dragging his feet (actually, I think he’s dragging another part of his anatomy).

Sidney says if she has to (and I think she’s done it once before), she will file a SECOND writ of mandamus to order him to do what he was ordered to do, but still hasn’t.

After reading various opinions (not just on FR), it seems the “tail-dragger” (I’m being ‘polite’) Judge is contemplating asking for an ‘en banc’ hearing, with the full court, not just the 3 that ruled. What I’ve heard is that he is not a party to the case & if his ‘en banc’ request was granted, it would be “unprecedented”. Also, in the opinion written by Rao of the 3 judge panel, there was some language in there that was “discouraging” for Sullivan to try to go the ‘en banc’ route .... so I heard (but haven’t read it myself).

Time will tell - I don’t think Sidney/Flynn are going to wait forever.

If you’d like to see a VERY interesting interview with Sidney where she talks about this, how she ended up as Flynn’s lawyer, etc. here is a link (excellent interview, IMO):

There is a slim chance that he is doing this to allow Barr the opportunity to get more “Brady Material” into the public hands through the court. The FBI is still hiding a trove of material according to Sidney Powell. Particularly, a memo from Jan 2017 that clears General Flynn. It is a slim possibility but I'm holding out hope that we get are hands on more evidence proving FBI corruption.

Is that a rhetorical question?

Someone ought to remind the ‘judge’ that ‘Justice delayed is justice denied’.

Under the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure, the deadline for requesting an en banc rehearing is 14 days after the panel’s entry of the order which was 24 June. So a request for an en banc hearing could come from Flynn or the COA on its own motion on or before 8 July- next Wednesday. At that point the mandamus order is final.

“Someone ought to remind the ‘judge’ that ‘Justice delayed is justice denied’.”

Pretty sure ‘judge’ doesn’t care. If he gave a rat’s ass about justice, this would’ve been over months ago.

Turn off his paycheck, don’t pay the utility bills for his courtroom and office. Let him start a GoFundMe or apply for a grant from the Clinton Foundation.

He is not the only one who can keep this in limbo; supposedly the Appeals Court can to (notwithstanding the 2-1 ruling).

For sure!

He’s getting his day in the sun at the expense of his own integrity...so he’s bought and paid for, too.

I thought he had been ordered from a higher court to drop the case.

Somebody like Obama has got some dirt on this judge and is using it to full effect.

He's getting his orders directly from Rat Party Headquarters so I'd say absolutely yes.And General Flynn knows that he has the By Any Means Necessary Party to thank.

But he'll prevail in the end...the civil suits will be starting soon.I'll fire up the popcorn machine!

...Sullivan is looking very petty and mean.

You're be far too forgiving here.He's looking exactly like what he is...an enthusiastic co-conspirator. Osama Obama would settle for nothing less.

Because there are a set number of days for the court to act.

The judge can ignore the order and subject himself to contempt.

He can appeal the to entire slate of the appeals court.

He can dismiss, as instructed.

Those are the options. He has until the 16th to do any of them. There really is not anything else he can do.
